US Patent:

44755341, Oct 9, 1984

Filed:

Nov 30, 1978

Appl. No.:

5/965094

Inventors:

Daniel J. Moriarty - Whittier CA

International Classification:

F24C 1508
F23J 1100

US Classification:

126299D

Abstract:

An energy-saving ventilating system for a restaurant kitchen stove provides a first air stream flowing upwardly from a location adjacent the rear edge of the cooking surface, a second air stream discharged into the space in front of the stove where the cook stands and flowing rearwardly above the cooking surface, and a third air stream discharged downwardly from an outlet above the front portion of the cooking surface so as to squeeze the second air stream as the latter flows over the front edge of the cooking surface, causing the second air stream to flow faster in that area, the third air stream acting as an invisible baffle to reduce induction of conditioned air from the kitchen into the space above the cooking surface.

International Classification:

H03H 500

US Classification:

333 26

Abstract:

A durable, broad-band low insertion loss RF feedthrough is formed of a straight conductor (5) centrally supported by, hermetically sealed to and axially extending through the center of a strong, rigid, impervious ceramic disk (3). The ceramic disk is hermetically sealed, directly or indirectly, to the metal barrier (11) through which the feedthrough is to propagate RF energy. The new ferrule and ferrule-less ceramic metal RF feedthroughs avoid the use of glass, conventional in existing feedthroughs. The novel feedthrough serves as the principal element of a microwave microstrip line to waveguide transition.

International Classification:

US Classification:

Abstract:

A recirculating exhaust hood for a dishwasher may be comprised of an exhaust duct, a positive pressure plenum, a negative pressure plenum, and a fan for circulating air from the communicating dishwashing cavity through the positive and negative pressure plenums, and the exhaust duct. Air drawn through the intake of the fan is circulated through the positive pressure plenum to a supply slot. High velocity air exiting from the supply slot to a contiguous intake port of the negative pressure plenum creates a high velocity stream of air which by entrainment or by Venturi effect draws warm moisture laden air from the dishwashing cavity into the negative pressure plenum. The entrained moist warm air is then recirculated to the positive pressure plenum by means of the fan. A portion of the output of the fan is directed to an exhaust duct and removed from the dishwashing system. One or more static pressure plates, drying coils, or heat exchanging coils may be appropriately disposed in the positive pressure plenum in order to couple energy from the warm moist air being circulated through the dishwashing cavity to a working fluid, to dry the air or to create the desired pressure differential.
